Neeta Madahar and Christopher Russell " Pollination"
Julie Saul Gallery
This event has ended.
Julie Saul Gallery presents a two person exhibition entitled Pollination combining unique Cibachrome photograms by Neeta Madahar and glazed ceramic sculptures by Christopher Russell. This will be Madahar's third show with the gallery and Russell's premier show.
Madahar's Cosmoses is a series of large-scale unique photograms made of origami cosmos. Each flower was made by the artist- a systematic process that required extreme concentration and a delicate relationship between the eye, hand and mind.
Christopher Russell creates highly detailed incredibly lifelike yet monochromatic ceramic works based on nature. For the last three years he has been exploring the intense world of bees through a series of ceramic sculptures which comes out of a tradition of scientific models and the decorative arts.
Although in many ways the works of Madahar and Russell are very different, they share a sensual and sublime celebration of nature and an obsession with fabrication and process in their exquisite craft. Like the process of pollination in nature, their work combines seduction and science.
